RALEIGH, N.C. – Arnold Allen hopes 2020 is the year he finally fights three times in the UFC. Allen (15-1 MMA, 6-0 UFC) has been with the promotion since June 2015, but he has graced the octagon on just six occasions. While he’s won all those bouts, 2019 was the first year in his UFC stint that he’s fought more than once. With the potential to get the year off to a promising start with his featherweight matchup against Nik Lentz (30-10-2 MMA, 14-7-1 UFC) on Saturday at UFC on ESPN+ 24, Allen thinks 2020 could be his year. “Fighting in January, if everything goes the way I want it to go, then midyear, then the end of the year – three fights would be perfect,” Allen told MMA Junkie on Wednesday.
